>>3875Don't feel bad. Thank you for the response. I think I understood most of what you said. Yes, there isn't a clear immutable self. I agree, I was asking on any level basically.
Thanks for sharing the information. I took the thread pretty seriously. I think Opie is serious. I think he's on to something.
I also think you subscribe to determinism which is where we fundamentally differ and that's why perhaps we can't find the same language, we can't find a common ground in terms of some of the things we've been discussing.
But yeah, don't feel bad. Yes, the discussion is boring, because for me it's unengaging and for you you feel like you're talking to a retard, which is fair. But that's not a reason to feel bad. We just have to acknowledge that for the two of us the discussion doesn't go anywhere interesting. And that's all right. I cannot share information with you and you cannot share information with me. We are too far apart. The information doesn't make it over the chasm.
Tbh this whole chan sounds like it's populated by 18 y/o seniors, but who am I to judge. I do like the cute anime girl larping though, even if it's grown men on the other side of the screen. I'm not so sure about yous guys capability and capacity for humor, but maybe I'm the one lacking in that department. Anyhow, farewell. I actually do admire Buddhists. Good on you to explore those systems. They ARE kind of rad.
For the record:
>If you dislike suffering, you'll seek ways to relieve yourself of itThis is the idea that I didn't agree with and tried to enlighten you on. That led to this long and pointless discussion that saw both of us get bored with.
